Abstract: An exchange computer system creates, trades and/or otherwise manages basis derivative contracts. At maturity, a basis derivative contract may have two components. A first component may require a party to the basis derivative contract to make or take some type of delivery related to a particular subject matter. A second component may require the basis derivative contractee to accept a further obligation under one or more derivative contracts related to the subject matter.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a system which calculates a conversion factor (CF) based upon a zero percent (0%) futures contract standard. The zero percent futures contract standard may be used in the context of futures or forwards based upon coupon bearing debt securities including Treasuries, Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS), agencies, corporates, municipals, or any fixed income security. The system also facilitates listing, trading, and settlement of an interest rate futures contract that sets forth such a zero percent futures contract standard. The system may be configured for both interest rate futures contracts utilizing a nonzero percent futures contract standard and interest rate futures contract utilizing a zero percent futures contract standard. The system may be configured to calculate an invoice amount for the interest rate futures contract to be paid in exchange for the delivery of the one of the set of eligible interest rate or debt securities and instruments.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for determining a quotation price of a spread between multiple products, such as two or more futures contracts, having non-homogeneous construction, e.g. one may be specified in terms of an implied rate, such as a Eurodollar Futures contract, and the other may be specified in terms of a price, such a U.S. Treasury Futures contract. The disclosed embodiments normalize the valuation of each “leg” of the spread with respect to each other, accounting for the divergence of the underlying contract construction, so that a difference in those valuations may be computed.
